A review by bungadinding
Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List by Rachel Cohn, David Levithan

3.0

For the most part this book feels more like a bunch of writing exercises by the two authors, like they were exploring several different point of views and styles, but in the end it all failed to build a cohesive story. The writing feels so messy and meandering and not enough emphasis on themes that are more important & substantial to the story. But at the end it has a message that i really really like:

"It's bullshit to think of friendship and romance as being different. They're not. They're just variations of the same love. Variations of the same desire to be close."

"Friendship is love as much as any romance. And like any love, it's difficult and treacherous and confusing."
